Urban Jürgensen 2025 Collection: UJ-1, UJ-2 & UJ-3

Urban Jürgensen introduces three timepieces that showcase technical achievements timewhile honoring the brand’s heritage: the UJ-1, our 250th anniversary watch that serves as a bridge across time; the UJ-2, the three-hand watch with the UJ double wheel natural escapement, in which beauty and philosophy come together; and the UJ-3, a perpetual calendar with instantaneous moon phase built around the UJ double wheel natural escapement, in which complexity and elegance align.

Mastering the minute

This collection is a major step forward in a natural progression for Urban Jürgensen,” says Co-CEO Kari Voutilainen, whose involvement with the brand spans decades. “The synchronized action of the double wheel natural escapement, visible beneath the balance-wheel bridge of the UJ-2 and UJ-3, embodies our philosophy that true innovation in watchmaking isn’t about revolution – it’s about thoughtful evolution in pursuit of excellence – as does the bridge across time that the UJ-1 builds to UJ’s previous golden age under Pratt and Baumberger. We are pleased to honor the past while we move to the future.”

Honed by hand

The UJ-1 translates the legendary Urban Jürgensen Pratt Oval Pocket Watch into a wristwatch. It features a tourbillon with a remontoir d’égalité providing constant force to the escapement, and incorporates dead-beat seconds.

Poetic precision

The collection introduces a fresh case design featuring reinterpreted teardrop lugs for elegant affordance to the wearer.

Each sterling silver dial is transformed through plating, hand guilloché, and precious metal track application. The Clous de Paris and Grain d’orge patterns, turned by hand on a rose engine, create depth and shifting reflections.

The 5N rose gold-plated movements feature grenage and perlage, as well as chamfers and bevels, along with black-polished screws and satin-finished wheels – all by hand. This attention to artisanship extends to the smallest elements.

Time Well Taken

What makes this collection particularly significant,” notes Co-CEO Alex Rosenfield, “is the way in which it advances Urban Jürgensen’s legacy of exceptional watchmaking and brings to life his and our values. This collection combines engineering with craft and emotional resonance. A UJ watch owner may never see some of the decoration and detail that is hidden deep inside the watch’s case but they will know that time was taken to do things right and see an object that aspires to perfection in its making. We do this not because perfection is the key to accuracy—though it is—but because perfection is a goal of its own and a source of joy. In a world in which time is a commodity and industrialization a way of life, we think that a focus on time kept and spent beautifully brings something special to our watches and to those who wear them.”

UJ-1

The Anniversary Watch charms the eye with its harmony of graceful curves and light-catching surfaces. But beyond this immediate beauty lies something deeper: it is a bridge. Carrying Urban Jürgensen’s philosophy of uncompromising craftsmanship across generations, it reflects the legacy of Peter Baumberger and Derek Pratt, previous stewards of the brand, while looking ahead under Kari Voutilainen’s guiding hand. Limited to an exclusive edition of 75 pieces, there are three references each in a limited series of 25 wristwatches.

Every detail represents countless hours of patient hand-finished artistry channeled to create a very special timepiece. Not merely an homage, but a continuation – a watch that makes time itself feel more precious through its affordance on the wrist.

Its story is closely tied to Kari, whose connection to Urban Jürgensen is defined by shared ideals. Years ago, when Pratt could no longer complete the Oval, Peter Baumberger turned to Kari to see it through. Now, as Co-CEO of UJ, he returns – not to replicate, but to carry forward a vision of time kept beautifully.

The Anniversary Watch is not about preserving the past. It is about making it part of today. Every curve, every gear, every guilloché surface speaks to where we’ve been and what comes next – a celebration of moments made more meaningful by how we choose to mark their passing.

UJ-2

Through the UJ-2’s understated beauty flow Urban Jürgensen’s philosophies – that the purest things demand our greatest efforts; that excellence is a goal in and of itself; and that the pursuit of perfection and doing things right is the key to joy. This timepiece is by a Maison that seeks the challenges posed by exceptional watchmaking and doesn’t skirt them.

At its heart is the double wheel natural escapement – a mechanism whose elegance belies the complexity of its creation. That Urban Jürgensen has chosen this sophisticated system for serial production reveals something essential about the manufacture’s philosophy: what others reserve for their pinnacle pieces becomes our starting point. Each component, from the handfinished wheels to the pristine bridges, to the decoration on parts unseen by the naked eye, exists because that’s the way it should be.

This commitment to the extraordinary speaks to Urban Jürgensen’s understanding of time itself. When the escapement wheels perform their intricate ballet – each tooth precisely engaging and releasing in a mesmerizing rhythm, orchestrating time with microscopic precision – they represent generations of watchmakers, from Urban’s teacher Abraham Louis Breguet to the watchmakers of today, who looked at accepted solutions and strove to make them better.

The UJ-2 is not about complexity for complexity’s sake. It is about the relentless pursuit of perfection in even the simplest things. Every element, visible or hidden, exists as a testament to the belief that marking time beautifully matters – that the way we choose to count our moments shapes how we experience them.

UJ-3

In the rarefied sphere of ultra-high horology, a perpetual calendar remains an item of delight. This watch, a creation of Urban Jürgensen Co-CEO, Kari Voutilainen in collaboration with master engineer Andreas Strehler, tames extraordinary mechanical complexity within the confines of a wearable timepiece, achieving that rarest of goals: turning mechanical virtuosity into pure elegance.

It is the story of human ingenuity meeting uncompromising craft, of mechanical necessity transformed into artistry. From the seamless integration of the calendar displays to the Strehler precise moon phase indication, licensed here for the first time in a serially produced watch, each function exists in perfect balance with the others. And at the heart of this harmony beats the UJ double wheel natural escapement. Each component, each carefully considered detail, is elevated through hand-finishing to a standard that would satisfy Urban Jürgensen himself – a standard that exists independent of whether the component can be seen from outside the watch.

That such ambition could be contained within such graceful proportions speaks to both the intelligence of its conception and the mastery of its execution. The UJ-3 is proof that intricate engineering can achieve sublime beauty, that complexity need not come at the cost of refinement.

In an age in which mechanical timekeeping is purely a matter of choice, the UJ-3 demonstrates why that choice matters: the belief that excellence, pursued for its own sake, is a joy in itself. Because the finest watchmaking is as much about the unseen as the revealed – about creating something of lasting beauty and meaning that strives for perfection for no reason but the spirit of the pursuit and the joy of wearing it.

The Legacy

Over 250 years ago, time, as we know it, started ticking. The story of Urban Jürgensen is a watchmaker’s fantasy – a story unfurling in notes of art and science, family and folly, poetry and precision, heritage and innovation, but mostly, an abiding passion for time kept and spent beautifully.

Mid-1700s: Once Upon The Time

Jørgen Jørgensen, Urban Jürgensen’s father, is born in Copenhagen on December 24, 1745, the son of a servant to the royal court.

At 14, he secures an apprenticeship with Copenhagen watchmakers Johan and Ephraim Lincke. In spring 1766, Jørgen sets out on the obligatory journey of personal and professional discovery that, since time immemorial, is the duty of a guild apprentice. His first stop: Germany. Over the following six years, he masters new tools, methods, and techniques. He even adopts the German spelling for his own name – Jürgen Jürgensen. He also spends a short while in Le Locle, Switzerland, where he further expands his horizons working with Jacques-Frédéric Houriet, an important watchmaker at the vanguard of industrializing what was still an artisanal craft. They quickly become lifelong friends.

1773: The Story Begins

April 29th, 1773. It’s been a year since Jürgen’s return to Copenhagen, and he applies to the guild for permission to make his Master Watchmaker’s qualifying piece – a repeating pocket watch of his own design. As a prerequisite, he goes to see an established guildsman and master watchmaker, Isaac Larpent, who is assigned to assist and supervise. The two men, already well acquainted, share ideas about a bigger project. This grows over the next years into a watchmaking company, “Larpent & Jürgensen.”

Around that time, Jürgen meets, courts, and marries Anne Leth Bruun, the daughter of a wealthy Copenhagen businessman.

1776: A Prodigy Is Born

Jürgen and Anne welcome Urban, the first of five children, on August 5, 1776. A few years later, Jürgen opens the first watch factory in Copenhagen and is appointed Royal Clockmaker to the Danish Court.

1797: Urban Sets Sail

Just as enterprising and passionate as his father, Urban embarks on his own journey – at exactly the same age as his father, 21. With a grant from the Danish government, he sets out on a learning mission to the workshops of Europe’s foremost watchmakers of the time in Geneva, Paris, and London. This gives Urban the necessary skills to advance both technical precision and horological aesthetics – and the invaluable insights required for industrializing both.

In 1799, Urban leaves for Paris, where he familiarizes himself with new tools and techniques in the workshops of Abraham-Louis Breguet, a close friend of Houriet’s, and Ferdinand Berthoud, both of whom were pushing the boundaries of horological engineering. Being a Dane, Urban is unencumbered by the enmity with France and obtains permission to enter England. He is welcomed by John Arnold. All three masters recognize in Urban a kindred spirit.

1801: Homeward Bound

In 1801, Urban returns to Copenhagen after four years on the road and he immediately gets to work, applying everything he learned in order to make high-precision pocket watches and marine chronometers. As Denmark is racing to compete with the other maritime powers of Europe, accurate, domestically made clocks are needed for navigation, and it puts the Danish Navy on the map.

1804: The Book

In December 1804, Urban publishes his ‘Rules for the Accurate Measurement of Time by Watches and Clocksʼ – still considered a major reference work today. This further establishes his reputation as both a leading horological theorist and top-flight practitioner.

1811: The Passing of the Torch

Jürgen Jürgensen dies on April 16, 1811, and Urban’s younger brother Fredrik takes over the family watchmaking business so that Urban can focus on his own work. Frederik makes a substantial success of it, and is himself appointed court horologist, purveyor of clocks and watches to the Danish royal family and state institutions. The pocket watches and mantel clocks made under Fredrik’s stewardship were uncompromising luxury items and fewer than 500 total pieces were made in the 32 years between his taking over and his death in 1843.

1815: The First Golden Age

With Fredrik in charge of carrying out their father’s ambition, Urban can now concentrate on his own goals: developing and creating high-precision chronometers, which he also sees as a duty to his country. Domestically made chronometers free seafaring Denmark from the hold England and France have on the coveted and crucial technology for accurately determining longitude.

On December 8, 1815, Urban is inducted into the Royal Danish Academy of Sciences, making history as a craftsman in the scientific community. This recognition is foundational in establishing Urban’s clout in all matters of precision – not just in chronometry, but also in scientific instrumentation in the fields of temperature, air pressure, and humidity.

1820: Company Man

Though he could operate a workshop, it took a special permit to both trade and manufacture timepieces. This is granted in 1820, and soon production of high-precision pocket watches, marine chronometers, and other instruments, for the Danish Navy among others, begins under the Urban Jürgensen name.

1820: The King's Watch

The King’s Watch owes its name to its original owner, Crown Prince Frederik Carl Christian of Denmark, later to become King Frederik VII. His crowned monogram is engraved on the dust cover of the gold watch case, along with a dedication. This chronometer is also the only one from the period to have a lever escapement. The watch was based on an ébauche designed by Houriet, which Urban likely brought back from his second sojourn in Switzerland in 1807-09. He completed the piece in 1820 and presented it to the Crown Prince when he was 12 years old.

1830: The Loss of a Legend

A humble and remarkable human being, Urban Jürgensen dies on May 14, 1830, at the age of 53. His eldest son, Louis Urban, is 24 at the time. His brother Jules Frederik, called Jules, is 22, and the youngest, Frederik, has just turned 13. Louis and Jules, already master watchmakers who had apprenticed under their father, take the reins of the family business, adding “& Sønner” ( & Sons) to the company signature.

1834: The Legacy Lives On

In 1834, Jules, perhaps the more adventurous of the brothers, sets out to Switzerland like his father and grandfather before him. Meanwhile, Louis Urban remains in Copenhagen, ensuring the continuation of the brand’s Danish roots and upholding their father’s legacy in their homeland. Under the two sons, Urban Jürgensen remains as synonymous as ever with the highest attainable precision and reliability, combined with uncompromising craftsmanship and quality materials.

1867: World Exhibition

Jules Jürgensen’s son, Jacques Alfred Jürgensen (born May 17, 1842), possesses the same maverick streak of his grandfather and great-grandfather. While the management of Jules Jürgensen Copenhagen was gradually being entrusted to his older brother, Jacques traced his own path, making his own movements and coming up with fresh innovations, one of them a decimal motion work that was on display at the World Exhibition in Paris in 1867.

1894: Jules Jürgensen

So that he can pursue his creative and entrepreneurial vision, a new company is created within the original. Under the name Jacques Alfred Jürgensen Locle, Urban’s grandson is given free rein, initially to operate as a supplier to the parent company, then gradually to build a reputation and a clientele of his own – true to the spirit of quality, craftmanship, and innovation that have always been inextricably linked to the Jürgensen name. When his brother dies in 1894, Jacques Alfred takes over the assets and consolidates both companies under the name Jules Jürgensen Copenhagen. The company continues to produce watches to Jacques Alfred’s exacting standards until his passing on June 30, 1912.

1919: Succession (s)

Though Jacques Alfred has no children, Urban Jürgensen’s legacy continues to endure in unexpected ways. David Golay, a trusted friend, continues the company’s operations under the old name after Jacques Alfred’s passing. World War I is raging at the time, and business has soured. Fashions shift to slimmer, lighter-weight watches and, facing these challenges, Golay decides to sell the company.

1919: Rose Watch Co. & Ed Heuer & Co.

On July 22, 1919, Henry Freund & Bros., the brand’s main distributor in New York, joins forces with Bienne-based Ed. Heuer & Co., to acquire the assets of Urban Jürgensen Copenhagen. The new owners immediately set out to burnish the Jürgensen image, investing heavily in a new collection. The timepieces manufactured in Bienne by Heuer between 1919 and 1930, under the supervision of Hubert Bernard Heuer, the founder’s grandson, faithfully capture the spirit of the original Urban Jürgensen. Thin, elegant, and innovative in both design and engineering, they conquer high society, from New York to London, from Paris to Geneva, and, of course, in Copenhagen. In 1930, an ultra-slim gold pocket watch commemorating the 100th anniversary of Urban Jürgensen’s passing is offered as a gift to a delighted King Christian X.

1936-1974: Dark Years

Urban Jürgensen endures a series of ownership changes, from Ed. Heuer & Co. to Aisenstein Woronock & Sons. Inc. of New York to Victor Huff to Downe Communication in Philadelphia to Morton Clayman, who sets about manufacturing watches in St. Croix, US Virgin Islands, with components sourced from Switzerland. This venture, under the name Jules Jürgensen, is a low point in the company’s uninterrupted legacy, proves unsuccessful, and is promptly wound down after Clayman’s death.

1976: The Bicentennial

In Copenhagen, the Clock and Watchmakers’ Guild celebrates the 200th anniversary of Urban Jürgensen’s birth. At the time, there’s still a small shop selling antique Jürgensen watches, Urban’s publications, and other memorabilia – the last vestige of the Jürgensen legacy in Denmark. The shop’s proprietor, Christian Gundesen, a former journeyman watchmaker himself, owns everything, including the rights to the name. Naturally, the shop’s front window is decorated for the occasion. This catches the eye of Peter Baumberger, a Swiss collector and businessman, who happens to be in town to see some friends. Baumberger enters the store, only to emerge a few hours later, dumbfounded by the world he’s just discovered. He also knows that he must bring Urban Jürgensen back to its former glory.

1979: The Second Golden Age

By 1979, the Quartz Crisis has devastated much of the Swiss mechanical watchmaking industry. Baumberger sees it as an opportunity; by selling his prized collection of antique watches, he raises the capital to acquire the necessary equipment. He brings in English watchmaking legend Derek Pratt and he and the famed watchmaker get to work. Pratt had a special reputation – though less well-known than his friend and collaborator George Daniels, Pratt was the more technically sophisticated of the pair. In their legendary weekly calls, Pratt solved many of Daniel’s most complicated watchmaking questions.

Baumberger and Pratt’s collaboration begins with an initial series of pocket watches that set a remarkably high standard, paving the way for a new generation of wristwatches. Stepped cases, elegant teardrop-shaped lugs, and meticulously crafted two-tone, frosted, and hand-guilloché dials. The watches they make are timeless and unmistakable, among the best and most luxurious watches of their era.

1996: The Next Great Scandinavian Watchmaker

Baumberger meets Kari Voutilainen, a young and exciting Finnish watchmaker who had been working in Switzerland. He quickly becomes an essential part of the team. Today, Kari is in his early 60s, Co-CEO of Urban Jürgensen and is recognized as one of the world’s leading watchmakers, a legendary movement designer, and a master of hand-finishing.

2005: The Urban Jürgensen Pratt Oval Pocket Watch

The Urban Jürgensen Pratt Oval Pocket Watch was initially created by Derek Pratt during his tenure as Urban Jürgensen’s technical director. It was his magnum opus and it took over two decades for him to complete the watch. Due to his illness, Baumberger handed over the assembly and finishing of the watch as a kit of parts to Kari Voutilainen who completes the famous work. The unique piece features a oneminute flying tourbillon with an integrated remontoire constant-force mechanism, an Earnshaw-style spring-detent escapement, and a moon phase display. It is one of the all-time great combinations of technical and artistic watchmaking and an example of what contemporary watchmakers can achieve when working without typical commercial constraints.

2008: The P8

In 2005, the team embarks on a seemingly impossible quest: to create a mechanical wristwatch with the accuracy and efficiency of a marine chronometer. Despite the challenges, they persevere and in 2011 unveil the Caliber P8, a groundbreaking achievement and the brand’s first serially produced in-house movement in the modern era. Sadly, Peter Baumberger did not live to see this.

2011: The Doctor Steps In

The sudden loss of Baumberger leaves Urban Jürgensen without its guiding figure. Fortunately, his close friend, Dr. Helmut Crott – a distinguished authority in horology, renowned collector, and passionate admirer of the brand’s legacy – steps in to provide continuity. Under Dr. Crott’s leadership, the team sustains its tradition, not only of creating exceptional watches that exemplify both technical prowess and craftsmanship, but also of innovating.

One of Dr. Crott’s key accomplishments is unifying the Jules Jürgensen and Urban Jürgensen brands after nearly 200 years of separate operation. Despite this and the success of the new collections, along with the brand’s rising profile, Dr. Crott recognizes the need for a structure capable of managing the inevitable financial demands while preserving the brand’s values.

2014: Return of the Danes

In late 2014, a consortium of Danish private equity investors present a strategy for sustainable growth and purchase the company. During this time, Urban Jürgensen launches new collections based on the P4 and P8 movements, under the movement design direction of Jean-François Mojon, expands its global retail network, and in 2017, opens a new headquarters in Biel, at the heart of Swiss watchmaking.

2021: Back to the Family

In 2021, the company is purchased by an American family of devoted watch collectors who, along with a small group of strategic investors, set about faithfully returning Urban Jürgensen to its roots. Their goal as stewards of this legendary and historic brand is to make sure it represents the highest standards of design, technical innovation, and watchmaking quality.

They immediately enlist Kari Voutilainen as Co-CEO. A celebrated master watchmaker, Kari is renowned for his deep respect for traditional horology and exceptional finishing techniques. He is also the most awarded independent watchmaker in the history of the Grand Prix d’Horlogerie de Genève (GPHG). Having worked early in his career with Baumberger and Pratt at Urban Jürgensen, Kari is thrilled with the opportunity to reconnect with the brand that played such an important role in his own beginnings.

Alex Rosenfield, who represents the family, also joins as Co-CEO. He brings experience in fashion, media, and marketing, with a focus on building meaningful brands. He is dedicated to putting Urban Jürgensen and its role in high watchmaking in direct conversation with the broader culture, creating timepieces that honor our legacy while also forging new paths. He is focused on growing Urban Jürgensen’s unique stature in the watchmaking world and working to bring the universe of Urban Jürgensen to collectors and fans of great engineering, craftsmanship, and style.

2024: The Oval Sets An Auction Record

The Urban Jürgensen Pratt Oval Pocket Watch, now part of the famed Dr. Crott Collection, is already a legend among legends in horology. At the Phillips Reloaded auction in Geneva on November 8, it sells for CHF 3,690,000 ($4,229,847 USD), far exceeding its initial estimate of CHF 1 million – setting a new record for Urban Jürgensen and cementing its place as a true masterpiece of watchmaking.

2025: The Legacy Continues

Urban Jürgensen enters its next age with a launch celebration in Los Angeles, California, to celebrate the exceptional history of the company and to introduce new models and movements.

The company will continue to conduct its design, manufacturing, and production operations in Switzerland while honoring its Danish roots and unparalleled legacy as one of the oldest watch companies in continuous operation. It will produce watches that drive the art and engineering of watchmaking forward while utilizing the greatest craft and decorative techniques that have always been a signature of Urban Jürgensen. Now, again under family ownership and led by exceptional talent, the company is excited to explore the future and continue its legacy of representing the highest level of excellence in watchmaking and to bringing the joy and delight of this legacy to its collectors.
